# M16 routed operator UI evidence

- The authenticated operator console now has protected, URL-addressable routes for the existing Dashboard, Sources, Repositories, Jobs, Executions, Backups, Security, Notifications, and Audit views. `/` and authenticated unknown routes redirect to `/dashboard` without adding a dead Back-history entry.
- Authentication discovery happens before the route shell renders, so an unauthenticated deep link is retained through sign-in rather than prematurely redirected.
- Route components load through `React.lazy` with an announced `Suspense` state and an in-shell error boundary. `OperatorPages.tsx` splits the existing resource pages into a separate production chunk.
- Navigation uses semantic `NavLink` anchors with current-page semantics. The shell provides one main landmark, a functional skip link, route-based document titles, and focus restoration after route navigation.
- Route-level tests cover direct `/sources` navigation, title/current-link state, focus restoration, authenticated unknown-route redirect, and the skip link. Existing workflow tests were adapted to the semantic navigation links.

Known boundary: this evidence covers delivery slice 1's routed shell over the pre-existing read/workflow views. The create/edit/administration workflows in later slices of `docs/plans/full-operator-ui.md` remain unimplemented.
